NWD
« on: May 23, 2013, 04:10:30 PM »
Just got this. The best wah I tried so far. Two fasels: Cry Baby and a darker voiced wah. Build in boost is adjustable. Trimpots inside to tweak it to your taste. Easy battery access, but I use an adapter.

i got one of these recently. pretty good, but very modern-sounding and smooth. I haven't tweaked the internals yet.

FWIW thomann has them a fair bit cheaper than the UK-~£120 IIRC (UK is normally £135+). I had a credit note with music store so i just got it to use up my credit note :lol:

Nice score :)

Like Feline and Dave say, made by Dunlop, so easy to get. You can get classic wah in orange mode, the red mode is more smooth, which I was looking for since I play most of the time single coils: strat and tele.

The CAE wahs are excellent, about as good a vox/crybaby style wah as can be found, and about the only dunlop wah outside of the standard wahs that's worth the notes paid.

Great buy! i still fear knobs though.. ;)

If you know this pedal, you know it's clever, but simple to use. I don't like complicated stuff, like midi and so on, but this one my brain can handle. ;-)

Great wah. I haven't tried many wahs, but I'm very satisfied with the CAE. Congrats and go do some wahkka wahkka wahkka stuff  :D

I use the same Wah, it's awesome. Usually I live on the Yellow Fasel with no boost, but occasionally I'd switch over and have a go on the bottom thump quack of the red.

The red fasel is excellent for some distorted modern lead work. I haven't tried it in person, but it seems quite similar to the Jerry Cantrell wah tonewise.

The yellow fasel is classic screaming wah, the red is quite smooth. The yellow one sounds great with the boost too, the red one with a boost can get to dark with humbuckers, depending on the amp or whether you play a od-pedal through the clean channel. With an edgy tele it warms up things.
